Liouville's theorem #
In this file we prove Liouville's theorem: if f : E → F
is complex differentiable on the whole
space and its range is bounded, then the function is a constant. Various versions of this theorem
are formalized in Differentiable.apply_eq_apply_of_bounded
,
Differentiable.exists_const_forall_eq_of_bounded
, and
Differentiable.exists_eq_const_of_bounded
.
The proof is based on the Cauchy integral formula for the derivative of an analytic function, see
Complex.deriv_eq_smul_circleIntegral
.
If f
is complex differentiable on an open disc with center c
and radius R > 0
and is
continuous on its closure, then f' c
can be represented as an integral over the corresponding
circle.
TODO: add a version for w ∈ Metric.ball c R
.
TODO: add a version for higher derivatives.
If f
is complex differentiable on an open disc of radius R > 0
, is continuous on its
closure, and its values on the boundary circle of this disc are bounded from above by C
, then the
norm of its derivative at the center is at most C / R
.

A corollary of Liouville's theorem where the function tends to a finite value at infinity
(i.e., along Filter.cocompact
, which in proper spaces coincides with Bornology.cobounded
).
